MANY INFRINGE IT. | "Sacred" Law, of Golf That is Not i Lived Up To. Are you ene of those golfers who help yourself to a handful of sand and go about the business of teeing up your ball while your opponent is { addressing his ball or making a | shot? t If so, make unto yourself a mental resolution never to do it again. It isn't being done these days.

Golf is a game of custom and eti- quette. If you don't care to adhere to the rules of golf, then quit play- ing the game. Perhaps you're one of those players who do not take part in tournaments and register a silent complaint each time a tourna- ment. match passes through you. But that's one of the rules of golf clubs in force everywhere. If you don't like it, why start playing in tourna- mentg yourself. If you can't: beat a game joint it But back to this teeing up when it isn't your honor. Cut it out. Your opponent, out of the corner of his eye, sees you teeing your ball some- where in the rear. If he's a tem- peramental chap it throws him Even without temperament the fact that you're close behind him may throw fthim off a bit, distract his attention from the concentration off. | ming suit was split on neck to knees Lawn Temnly Doing Big Bit.

There may be a dozen reasons, but ithe big one is that it is contrary to the eti- quette of the game. [Paragraph 23 of "Etiqueite of Golf," page 139, in the Golf |Guide, reads: | '""Thé player who has thé honor should be allowed ito play before his opponent tees the ball." So keep off the tee until your ep- ponent makes his shot. If you've been getting awhy with that sort of thing count yourself lucky.

A new world's rewsrd for high diving was made at Sydney," Aus- tralia, late in March, during a water carnival for the purpose of raising wai relief funds. A Solomon Is- lander named Alick Wickham dove 205 feet, which easily surpasses any existing figures for such a feat. Wickham, a swimmer and diver of note, who is employed by the Syd- ney trolley service, was persuaded! to attempt the dive as part of a length programme of aquatic) évents held at the Deep Rock Swim- ming pool. A high platform was erected near the top of the cliff-like side of the pon), and at the announced hour for the dive there were thousands of spectators present to witness the perilious feat. The Solomon Islander admitted that when he reached the top of the tower and looked down at the pool, mare sition with such force that he was badly rattled, and desired. to quit, but the fear of being accused of cowardice forced him to go through with the performance. He leaped off, and was able to regain both consciousness and equilibrium for the first 150 feet, after which all became blank. Wickham struck the water in a semi-prone position with such force that he was com- pletely knocked out for more than ten minutes. When taken from the water he was bleeding from a dozen places about the body, and his swim-~ WHY MITCHELL HAS HIS CUBS ON TOP Chicago Leader Has a Happy Knack of Rejuvenating Cast~ off Players.

The Baltimore Board of Police Commissioners announced * "to-day that except for the boxing contests for which permitsshave been granted no move 'will be allowéd during the period of the war. In effect this prevents the meeting of Fred Ful- ton and Jack Dempsey in that city. The board 'had previouslg~ issued a permit for the contest for the 4th of July, but owing to the inability of the promoters to get a proper site they decided to postpone it to July 13th.
